Human Longevity Inc.’s Open Search provides researchers access to the data on over 10,000 genomes.* This browser-based search supports efforts to understand human genetic diversity and empowers researchers to quickly search through our genomic database. This database contains more than 200 million variants that are linked to ClinVar and other trusted databases.

Simple query-based search

Fast, robust, and powerful whole genome analysis

Access to allele frequencies of 10,000 whole genomes

Seamless links to many genome resources

Deep Sequencing of 10,000 Genomes

We report on the sequencing of 10,545 human genomes at 30x to 40x coverage with an emphasis on quality metrics and novel variant and sequence discovery. We find that 84% of an individual human genome can be sequenced confidently. This high-confidence region includes 91.5% of exon sequence and 95.2% of known pathogenic variant positions. We present the distribution of over 150 million single-nucleotide variants in the coding and noncoding genome. Each newly sequenced genome contributes an average of 8,579 novel variants. In addition, each genome carries on average 0.7 Mb of sequence that is not found in the main build of the hg38 reference genome. The density of this catalog of variation allowed us to construct high-resolution profiles that define genomic sites that are highly intolerant of genetic variation. These results indicate that the data generated by deep genome sequencing are of the quality necessary for clinical use.

HLI Open Search Privacy Policy

We at Human Longevity, Inc. (“HLI”) know that our users care about how your personal information is used and shared, and we take your privacy seriously. Please read the following to learn more about our Privacy Policy. By visiting or using HLI Open Search in any manner, you acknowledge that you accept the practices and policies outlined in this Privacy Policy, and you hereby consent that we will collect, use, and share your information in the following ways. Any capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meaning given to them in the HLI Open Search Terms of Use.

I. What does this Privacy Policy cover?

This Privacy Policy covers our treatment of personally identifiable information (“Personal Information”) that we gather when you are accessing or using HLI Open Search. This policy does not apply to the practices of companies that we do not own or control, or to individuals that we do not employ or manage.

We do not knowingly collect or solicit personal information from anyone under the age of 13 or knowingly allow such persons to register for HLI Open Search. If you are under 13, please do not attempt to register for HLI Open Search or send any information about yourself to us, including your name, address, telephone number, or email address. No one under age 13 may provide any personal information to us or on HLI Open Search. In the event that we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under age 13 without verification of parental consent, we will delete that information as quickly as possible. If you believe that we might have any information from or about a child under 13, please contact us at privacyofficer@humanlongevity.com.

II. What information does HLI collect?

We gather Personal Information from our users, as explained more fully below. We may use this Personal Information to personalize and improve our products and services, to contact users, to fulfill your requests for certain services, to analyze how users utilize HLI Open Search, and as otherwise set forth in this Privacy Policy. We may share certain types of Personal Information with third parties (described in this Section and in Section III below). We collect the following types of information:

A. Information You Provide to Us: We receive and store any information you knowingly provide to us.

B. Information Collected Automatically: Whenever you interact with HLI Open Search, we automatically receive and record information on our server logs from your browser including your IP address, “cookie” information, and the page you requested. “Cookies” are identifiers we transfer to your computer or mobile device that allow us to recognize your browser or mobile device and tell us how and when pages in HLI Open Search are visited and by how many people. You may be able to change the preferences on your browser or mobile device to prevent or limit your computer or device’s acceptance of cookies, but this may prevent you from taking advantage of some features of HLI Open Search. If you click on a link to a third party website, such third party may also transmit cookies to you. This Privacy Policy does not cover the use of cookies by any third parties.

Certain usage information we collect (such as the numbers and frequency of visitors to HLI Open Search), we only use in aggregate form, and not in a manner that would identify you personally. For example, this aggregate data tells us how often users use parts of HLI Open Search, so that we can make HLI Open Search appealing to as many users as possible. We may also provide this aggregate information to our partners; our partners may use such information to understand how often and in what ways people use HLI Open Search, so that they, too, can provide you with an optimal experience. However, our data capture and analysis tools, and other similar tools may also capture your identifiable data. For example, it may be possible for us to associate your queries with your identity. We will not use such identifiable data for any purposes other than to operate, promote, and improve HLI Open Search, other HLI products and services and to develop new ones.

III. Will HLI share any of the Personal Information it receives?

We neither rent nor sell your Personal Information in personally identifiable form to anyone. We share your Personal Information in personally identifiable form with third parties as described below.

A. Agents: We employ other companies and people to perform tasks on our behalf and need to share your information with them to provide products or services to you. Unless we tell you differently, our agents do not have any right to use the Personal Information we share with them beyond what is necessary to assist us.

B. Business Transfers: We may choose to buy or sell assets. In these types of transactions, customer information is typically one of the business assets that would be transferred. Also, if we (or substantially all of our assets) are acquired, or if we go out of business, enter bankruptcy, or go through some other change of control, Personal Information would be one of the assets transferred to or acquired by a third party.

C. Protection of HLI and Others:We reserve the right to access, read, preserve, and disclose any information that we reasonably believe is necessary to comply with law or court order; enforce or apply our conditions of use and other agreements; or protect the rights, property, or safety of HLI, our employees, our users, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction.

D. With Your Consent:Except as set forth above, you will be notified when your Personal Information may be shared with third parties in personally identifiable form, and will be able to prevent the sharing of this information.

IV. Is Personal Information about me secure?

We endeavor to protect the privacy of your Personal Information we hold in our records, but we cannot guarantee complete security. Unauthorized entry or use, hardware or software failure, and other factors, may compromise the security of user information at any time.

HLI Open Search may contain links to other sites. We are not responsible for the privacy policies and/or practices on other sites. When following a link to another site you should read that site’s privacy policy.

V. What Personal Information can I access?

If you have any questions about viewing or updating information we have on file about you, please contact us at privacyofficer@humanlongevity.com. Under California Civil Code Sections 1798.83-1798.84, California residents are entitled to ask us for a notice identifying the categories of Personal Information which we share with our affiliates and/or third parties for marketing purposes, and providing contact information for such affiliates and/or third parties. If you are a California resident and would like a copy of this notice, please submit a written request to: privacyofficer@humanlongevity.com.

VI. What choices do I have?

You can always opt not to disclose information to us, but keep in mind some information may be needed to register with us or to take advantage of some of our special features.

You may be able to add or update information as explained in Section V above. When you update information, however, we may maintain a copy of the unrevised information in our records.

VII. Changes to this Privacy Policy

We may amend this Privacy Policy from time to time. Use of information we collect now is subject to the Privacy Policy in effect at the time such information is used. If we make changes in the way we use Personal Information, we will notify you by posting an announcement on HLI Open Search or sending you an email.
